Spring time is coming! It is the time for baby chicks, bunnies and flowers. I have some of all of those things on the blog. Many in dessert form ;). Including these baby chicks in a nest donuts. I really love this time of year and I am having a blast getting ready for Easter. Luckily these little donuts are so easy to whip up for Easter or spring parties. Tweet, tweet the baby chicks are ready to party. I almost feel bad eating these little cuties because they are so adorable. Almost but they are also tasty!
what you need to make them:
mini chocolate donuts(store bought or home made)
yellow M&Ms(I used the light yellow Easter ones)
orange or pink heart sprinkles
black food writing pen
frosting or melted chocolate
Add a little bit of frosting or melted chocolate to the top of the donuts. I had frosting on hand so I used that but melted chocolate might be easier. Take a yellow M&M, put a dab of frosting or chocolate towards the bottom middle.
Take a black food writer and draw two half circles facing down for the eyes. You could also just put two dots for the eyes. Then put the M&Ms on the donuts.
Aren’t they just the cutest?! I just know everyone, especially the kids, will love these cuties for Easter!

catalog is a yearly traditions in many houses. My kids and I eagerly await
the Murray McMurray Hatchery catalog. We love looking at all the cool and
different chicken breeds available. Catalogs are free so head on over to
their site and request one if you are interested.
Typically hatcheries online offer both standard breeds
and bantams. Bantams are fun hardy little chickens, they lay tiny eggs
that kids especially love collecting. Bantams typically weigh less than 2
pounds when full grown. Just like ordering anything online there are pros
and cons to ordering baby chicks online. Pros of buying baby chicks in
La Salle Colorado * Big Selection - If you are wanting a large
variety of different chicken breeds and egg colors, you will find the best
selection at an online hatchery. * Both Bantams and full sized chickens

both male and female then choosing a "straight run" will save you money
and you will get a mixture of male and female chicks. You can also choose

Quantity - you must order a certain number of chicks. Typically hatcheries
will require you buy a minimum of 25 chicks at a time. The number is
necessary for the chicks survival during shipping. All 25 chicks are put
in one small box without heat. They are crowded in the box and produce
enough body heat to arrive in good shape. * The wait - If you choose to
buy chicks from a feed store you will have them the same day but if you
choose to go with a hatchery you have to wait until they are ready to ship
and then wait for the chicks to arrive. Ordering baby chicks online in
La Salle Colorado is easy and has always been a very pleasant
experience of me. It can be a little frustrating waiting for the chicks
but it's so worth the wait. When the post office calls and you hear all
those little "cheeps" or "chirps" in the background you'll know the wait
was worth it! How to Care for your new baby chickens in La Salle,
Colorado Baby chicks are quite
cute and also
tough to withstand,
however it's finest to prepare for their
arrival prior to you get them. Prepare first
by collecting not only the
proper products, however
likewise the proper
expertise to care for
them. Raising baby chicks is relatively
easy, you simply should supply them with the following: A
clean as well as cozy
habitat Lots of food and also water Attention and also
love Environment Your environment could be a
simple box, fish tank,
cat carrier, or guinea
pig cage. Line it with old towels and also
blankets (without loosened
strings!) to start, and after a
couple of weeks make use of straw over paper.
Keep in mind: Avoid using just
paper or other slipper
surface areas-- or your chicks legs could expand
malformed. You also require
something to serve up food as well as
water in, such as a chicken feeder as well as water
recipe from the feed shop, or a pickle container
cover for food and also a pet dog bird water dispenser from an animal store. Likewise, as the chicks grow older you could introduce a perch
into the environment to obtain them
educated on perching. Warmth To
maintain your chicks heat you need to
provide them with a warmth resource.
This could be as straightforward as a 100 watt
light bulb in a reflective clamp design light from an equipment shop, or an infrared reptile warmth
light bulb also function extremely well (my
recommendation). Chicks need this
heat 24/7 up until their downy fluff is
changed with plumes (which can use
up to 2 months). The freshly
hatched out need a temperature level
between 90 as well as 100 degrees,
and every week this could
be decreased by
around 5 levels or
so. The warmth source need to get on just one side of the cage
to allow chicks a range of
temperature levels. The chicks are your finest
thermostat- if they are concealing in the
other edge of your heat
light, you should
decrease the temperature. If
they are surrounding each other under the
warmth (not merely snuggling),
you need to put some warmth.
House cleaning
Cleanliness is essential and also it maintains your chicks healthy. Make certain to change
the bed linens
commonly and
consistently provide clean
food as well as water Food and water.
Chicks expand extremely quick
which needs plenty of tidy
food and water. Provide
enough in any way times and also inspect
frequently to
stop parched and
hungry chicks. Chick food is various than adult chicken food, as well as it comes
in both medicated and non-medicated varieties. Feed chick food for the
first two months, then
switch over to a grower food (~ 17 %
protein) for one more 2 months,
and afterwards to a somewhat
lower healthy protein feed or a level feed
(if you have layers). Soil Some chicks prefer to get a running start on taking
dust baths, while others won't occupy that activity up until they are
older. If you have the room in your chick
room, introduce a tray of sand or
dirt for them to shower in.
Interest and love There are a couple of benefits to hanging
out with your chicks. First of all, they will certainly most
likely bond with you as well as
not run away as grownups. Second, if you
examine your chicks daily as well as
watch their behavior, you could
catch disease or various
other troubles previously. Keep an
eye out for hissing, limping, or
other unhealthy
indicators. Make sure to
additionally check out
their poop, as looseness of the bowels can bring about matted feathers and obstructed cloaca.
Lastly, it is essential to keep an eye out for social concerns, such as the
tiniest chick getting teased. Empty nest syndrome So your
chicks are now fully feathered
and also its time for them to leave the
safety of your house
and relocate outside right into a cage. Have a look at our
part on chicken cages to find out
more
regarding coops and also
appropriate cage environments.
